So to update you guys.... After numerous appeals back and forth with their independent appeals service - who happen to be the biggest crock of ****! This is part of what was included in my last letter from them: Your case has been fully considered by an independent panel consisting of three...

Sorry but that is contradicting - how can they get away with issuing these penalties yet have their conductors doing the complete opposite and offering to sell tickets! Anyhow, following a call to Northern earlier today, they acknowledged the issue or flaw on the appeals website, asked me to...

So yes the signs are there as already pic'd above. However, I still don't understand how their signs suggest that one cannot board a train without a ticket yet the conductors on the trains still offer to sell tickets which was the case today. I also attempted to purchase a 7 day season ticket...

Hold on a second, I tried to appeal but the website they suggested I used did not recognise my penalty reference number!

Hi all, New to the forum but in need of some advice re the above. So I've been a regular Northern Rail traveller (season ticket) for the last few years. My normal route of travel has been Bradford Forster square which is where I would renew my weekly season ticket. However, having moved...
